    If someone is looking for a 2+2 Ferrari, for similar $$$$ I reckon this would be much better proposition than a tired GT4. For a start the interior looks new..

    But.. but... it's a slushbox - OK, a timewarp car - any idea of estimate?

    As for timeless chiseled styling - that went out of fashion in about 5 minutes. Of the 2 doors of that style ( 365/400, Lancia Gamma, Fiat 130) only the Lancia has stood the test of time (IMO). That said, a wonderfully original (apparently) car that will give someone a lot of ownership pleasure, I'm sure - concours potential?

    Wonder if the interior smells like mothballs

    Well, that at 80k or a Alfa 105 at 100k? I know what I'd prefer, slushbox or not...

    Lot to be said for unfashionable 2+2s.

    but seriously, you'd have to be pretty damn confused to wake up in the morning thinking "I can't decide if I'd rather buy a 308GT4 or some front engine V12 auto". They're a completely different experience...different market. Doesn't make sense to even consider them together.

    What's next? Should I buy a Tesla or a Mack truck?

    The point was for the same money as a ratty looking GT4 you could have a really nice looking 412 auto. Sure they are a different driving experience, but someone looking at an entry level GT4 is already contemplating a 2+2 , so why not consider a 412 ?

    Because one is a sports car and the other one is a 412.
